Description Hrvoje Senjan 2014-06-06 20:59:23 UTC
testing with openSUSE Factory, where we switched to gstreamer 1.0 (except QtMultimedia)
we need there to build with the mentioned option, however PMC can't find relevant Plasma packages it seems:

PLASMA_ADAPTER: Setting Oxygen Plasma theme and loading resources... 
Failed to load Plasma Libraries, cannot continue.
KCrash: Application 'plasma-mediacenter' crashing...
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib64/kde4/libexec/drkonqi from kdeinit
sock_file=/home/hrvoje/.kde4/socket-shumarija/kdeinit4__0
unnamed app(26486): Communication problem with  "plasma-mediacenter" , it probably crashed. 
Error message was:  "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply" : " "Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)" "

Reproducible: Always

With this can you check what error it prints?

My co-packager had this problem while building the package but turned out she just didn't have libplasmaadapter.so.1.3 installed, so make sure you have it installed

Those having this problems can rebuild with this commit and can give me output of plasma-mediacenter?

turns out the problem is not in 'missing' libplasmaadapter.so.1.3, but rather libplasmaadapter.so (i.e. the devel symlink). IOW only for distros that split the package to main, and devel one will the issue happen. Attached patched should fixed that (haven't tried yet whether it builds...)

Avoid dlopening plasmaadapter's devel symlink

Some distro's have PMC splitted to main and devel subpackage,
in that case the lib to dlopen was not available to users w/o devel
package installed, and made the bug exposed to them.
